More Wed Pro-am

Having a little trouble adding to my first post, so here's a new one.

Don't know if Ochoa is out of the event, but would assume so.

One of the hole supers told me that an alligator decided to block the cart path yesterday as Grace Park was practicing. Word is she escaped without incident. Grace, that is.

The forecast was about ten degrees too low. It has to be 90 today. Much water being consumed - the rum bottle is calling me, though. UPDATE: Left the course about 3pm. Most of the players had left and the scene at the putting green was sparse. Back to the condo and that rum bottle. The wireless is still toast but if I go out on the back deck, I get three bars and no interruption.Ochoa is no longer listed in the field at lpga.com. Morgan Pressel also did not make her scheduled pro-am appearance (Carin Koch replaced her) but she is still in the field. Since I picked Lorena to win, I'll replace her with Annika as my choice to win, with Christina Kim and Paula Creamer as CYAs.I mentioned the rough as being thick this morning - it had to be at least a couple of inches deep where I could get close enough to tell. Better keep 'em in the fairway, ladies.They're calling for thunderstorms tonight with a 40% chance of rain tomorrow (presumably early). I'll be out there unless I see lightning.

Hound Dog Speaks!

To hear me talk live about my favorite subject every week, check out "Inside The LPGA" at 7pm EDT every Tuesday night at PrimeSportsNetwork.com. Karen Palacios-Jansen and I will review the previous event and preview the upcoming week in the LPGA. If you miss the live broadcast, the archive of it will remain available until the next show goes out live.

About Me

I'm Ken Hartis, a forty-something dude from the Southeast USA. Grew up watching the Masters on TV every year. Started following the LPGA occasionally a few years ago, but really got addicted around the time Grace Park jumped in the water at the 2004 Kraft Nabisco. I like to think of my ladies' golf fanaticism as "my mid-life crisis". It's a lot cheaper than buying a Harley! Thanks for checking out the site, drop by anytime!
